Whoa, Sid, hold up there for a sec. You gave a review, fair and square. Requiem got a review as requested, and the undercut was dealt with swiftly and without mucking up the workings. So, your turn. Just let people know what to review.

As to jireh:
Sid's right. You did this before. This game is all about equal exchange. You want a review? You got to give one first. I'm not going to go over the rules, they're clearly laid out in the first post. Go read them before you come back again.

Though ... I just ... dont know which story to review first? I'll just try to hunt for one in here to review.

So let me recall as to how I SHOULD TO THIS MECHANIC.
a. before I ask for a review, I should REVIEW another's work first (which must be the latest responder you should review. Look, the rules posted here felt a bit vague for me. okay? more details? cause the details didn't clear portions of the rule.)
b. Once I did the complex review for every chapter, THEN I ASK FOR A REVIEW! gosh.

Look guys, this is how I interpreted the rules assigned here back then.
a. request for a review.
b. Once you got a review from someone, then review his work.
c. repeat previous two steps

This is very simple. If you want to participate in the game, you have to first review the last person who posted, and then the next person who posts will review your work (not the person you reviewed, unless they happen to also post after you). That way it goes in a chain: everyone who writes a review will get a review, with nobody left cold because someone doesn't reciprocate. This sentence of the first post of the thread should make this abundantly clear:

Also, no, you don't have to review every chapter. One review game post gets you a review of one chapter. If the next person in the review game hasn't read the preceding chapters, they'll generally review the first chapter, or if the author thinks a later chapter can stand on its own, they can instruct the next person to just read that chapter and give their impressions of it alone.

The Final Stretch - Chapter 74: Unraveling
The story of an ordinary boy on an impossible quest in a world that isn't as black and white as he always thought it was.(rough draft of the remaining chapters finished for NaNoWriMo; to be edited and posted)

Morphic(completed, plus silly extras)
A few scientists get drunk and start fiddling with gene splicing. Ten years later, they're taking care of eight half-Pokémon kids, each freakier than the next, while a religious fanatic plots to murder them all.

Dude. I just found out your old story was the one I read 2 years ago. here's my review. So ... could you review any chapter of my original story (it will bring you there by clicking the picture of the signature)?
please tell me I did it right this time?

@_@ I didn't review anyone; I only replied to try to clarify things, which I apparently failed at. You should be reviewing the last person who posted saying they'd reviewed something, not just anyone who posted last with anything. Which you actually did, because I see you've reviewed The Last Meowth by Sid87, so you're done. Whoever posts next (not me, because again I'm only replying to try to clarify things to you; the game should ignore me entirely because I didn't post a review) will now have to review your fic, so all you have to do now is wait.

Thanks for the review, though! Sorry I wasn't clearer.

(And once somebody has reviewed you and posted in the thread, you can at any point review the last fic posted in the thread by someone who's done a review and post again, if you want to get another review.)

All right. HERE is my review of the prologue and first chapter of Embrace. They were like night-and-day, and I hope the rest of the story tends more towards the way chapter one went! I will check back in when you update!

I'm not going to ask anyone to review Brothers' Bond, don't worry. I have a one-shot up called "The Last Meowth" that I'd love some thoughts on. It can be found right here.

Thanks!

I just finished reviewing your oneshot. It is pretty nice. Stories with innocent yung people are charming. Are you okay to review any of my chapters of Feli Chronicles Vitandes (click the picture from my signature)?

Here's some relevant Slayers background if you're the kind of stellar individual who hasn't seen Slayers, but is willing to read a fic from it anyway (skippable):

Spoiler:- Background for Burn:

The world of Slayers is one of swords and sorcery, gods and monsters. The gods (and their earthly servants, golden dragons) hope to save the world, while the monster try to destroy it.

Lina is a teenaged sorceress. Gourry is her protector—a swordsman who cannot use magic. Zelgadis is a chimera—a combination of human, golem, and brau demon. This gives him increased magical power, but also gives him golem-like skin. He tirelessly quests to find a way to reverse his chimeraism and get his body back to normal. Amelia is the princess of Seyruun (and a shrine maiden), white-magic capital of the world. Filia is a golden dragon and former priestess. Like most high-level dragons she has the power to assume human form. Xellos is a high-level monster and he has many powers including the ability to teleport. He appears in human form.

Recovery is a basic healing spell that uses the recipient’s energy to close his or her wounds at a more rapid rate. Resurrection is a powerful healing spell that heals wounds by drawing energy from nearby life forms.

At the end of her season in the anime, Filia became the caretaker of the last Ancient Dragon in existence.

Here's my review for you Pokeshipping one shot. learn more in my review why I prefer pokemon over humans as protagonists in pokefanfics

Would it be okay for you to check out my other story? Its a bit darker from what I planned compare to my other stories so far. A pokemon centered fic this time. Probably one of my hardest projects I've planned in a fanfic

Reviewed Nomad Seekers, since I think that was the story he was referring to. It's a pretty long review, just letting you know.

All righty, um... you have two choices, I suppose. One, you could go ahead and review the first few chapters of Forsaken (or the entire thing if you're brave enough), or if you wish to go outside of the Pokémon fandom, and have seen Wreck-It Ralph or don't mind getting some spoilers, you can go ahead and review Mag Mell. Your choice.

I reviewed Chapter 1. Somebody please review the latest chapter of: Across the World, And Back Again

-You can find the link in my signature! XD

Reviewed. Can someone review my story, PMD Ivory: The Sacred Relics? Its located in the signature.

I'm afraid that review most certainly does not meet the review requirements, specified in the first post. You may change it so that it does meet the requirements, and post again saying so, at least until someone else steps up to review it. Until then, Chapter of Charizard is up next with Across the World and Back Again.

The story takes place in a near-future alternate universe of the Pokemon world, in which Unova Pokemon are being migrated to Johto and Kanto as part of a government-backed experiment.

Olivia is a fourteen-year-old girl who is starting a journey in Johto after several years of special tutoring, hence why she is starting late. She hopes to use her quest as a way to find her father, who she is unaware passed away in a disaster five years prior. Her chaperone, Matt, was the one who tutored her on her late father's request; he has a goal of his own, which is to find Reshiram and use its flames of truth to learn more about his own relationship to what happened five years ago. They have also picked up two allies: Bunny, Matt's friend and colleague as an archeologist, and Nekou, a loud, sarcastic alcoholic with violent tendencies and a murky background.

However, strange things have begun happening to them. When Olivia went to Professor Elm's laboratory intending to get a Totodile as her official starter, he was missing and Professor Juniper happened to be there in his place, leading to Olivia being placed with an Oshawott she isn't totally thrilled with.

Meanwhile, Polaris, a mysterious Illuminati-like group, is planning something of biblical proportions on the continent. Team Rocket, their strength hobbled severely following their conflicts with Team Plasma - a wing of Polaris - in Unova, are jockeying into position to stop whatever Polaris is planning. To that end, the Team Rocket trio and Pierce have been sent under the command of Ariana and Dr. Zager to capture a piece of Meteonite, an element that fell on a meteorite, which will give them a leg up on Polaris's plans.

Right before the group arrived in Violet City, they encountered Nikolai, a young man with the ability to speak to Pokemon. However, he is actually N, but does not remember his true identity. During an encounter with one of the Shadow Triad, he was attacked with a poison, forcing Matt and the others to rush him to Violet City's Pokemon Center for stabilization.

If you're up for trying out the Slayers fic, but don't know anything about Slayers, here's some pertinent background information that might help you out (skippable):

Spoiler:- background info:

The world of Slayers is one of swords and sorcery, gods and monsters. The gods (and their earthly servants, golden dragons) hope to save the world, while the monster try to destroy it.

Filia is a golden dragon and former priestess. Like most high-level dragons she has the power to assume human form. She now lives among humans.

Val is Filia’s adoptive son. Jillas and Gravos are beastmen and friends of the family who work in Filia’s shop.

Xellos is a high-level monster and he has many powers including the ability to teleport. He appears in human form.

Zelgadis is a chimera—a combination of human, golem, and brau demon. This gives him increased power, but also gives him rocky, golem-like skin. He tirelessly quests to find a way to reverse his chimeraism and get his body back to normal.

Lina is a teenaged sorceress and the main character of Slayers. Gourry is her protector. Amelia is the princess of Seyruun, white-magic capital of the world. Martina is a princess of the (currently destroyed) kingdom of Zoana, who initially traveled with Lina in order to seek revenge against her (for the whole destroyed kingdom thing).

The Claire Bible is a supposedly infinite source of wisdom.

In the past, Lina essentially bullied Xellos into selling her his demon blood talismans—objects that allow her to amplify her magical power.

I've reviewed your story's first chapter here, and hopefully I met the requirements. If not, I'll definitely fix that up.

Was hoping to get a review for the first chapter of Refinery (~2k words), the second post in my sig. The prologue in the first post isn't a necessary read, at 500 words, but I'll summarize it here for anyone who just wants to get the gist of it;

Spoiler:- Prologue summary:

Jon, the main character, dreams of seeing his sister being kidnapped once again. When he wakes up he contemplates his goal, winning the Pokemon catching competition, which will apparently win her back. Also we see small insight into something of a rival character and an as-of-yet unrelated character.

“Well if you’re going to act like a reptile you can find success all kinds of ways. Lie, cheat and steal your way to the top if you don’t care for the well-being of those around you.”

A boy and his frog, venturing across the lands in search of sister and glory.
